add a LICENSE file containing the MIT license text, as is necessary #25

As far as I can discern Paul's intent is that all of this code is licensed as MIT, but that license requires a copy of the license text to be provided with the source. Attribution copied from ogr2osm.py, and files that mention the license adjusted to refer to the LICENSE file rather than an online copy.

Would also love to see a license here. I'd like to include this in a project, but I'd feel much better if the license was explicit.

With the SVN ogr2osm version, I'm not 100% sure if it's purely MIT-licensed.

@pnorman I completely missed that a license was specified in the main file here https://github.com/andrewguertin/ogr2osm/blob/master/ogr2osm.py#L28-L42. So it looks like it's dual licensed MIT and BEER-WARE! :beers:

AFAIK beerware is basically a very permissive license: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/Beerware

Therefore pnorman can relicense its version under the MIT license.

BTW, please include the LICENSE file in the repository.

@pnorman I does appear ogr2osm can be MIT licensed. Happy for us to proceed?
